Maintenance parts

Hi, just joined.

Getting a 2003 Malibu this Saturday and I want to get info on parts I will need for general maintenance and tips.

For oil change is there a part number for an extended length filter. I usually use Purolator Pure-one filters in my cars.

Is there a gasket on the oil pan plug that I should look for?

Any other maintenance tips I should be aware of?

Thanks
Mark

PF47 is the so-called "Classic" filter, made in-house by ACDelco. PF47E is an E-core filter made by Champion Laboratories for ACD. Either one is fine for oil change intervals up to 5,000 miles.

For a longer filter, use the PF52. It's identical to the PF47 other than length.
